Smart Grid Privacy Standards Proposed
|
Posted by: Anonymous in Best Practices Topic: Security
Current Rating: |

The information revealed is a type of surveillance. We need layers of privacy protections throughout the entire smart grid to effectively address privacy concerns and prevent privacy invasions and breaches.
